Bibi Fabric

Rubia Cove combines a soft, pale ground with blue-grey floral forms and ochre paisley-like detailing. Its cool, gently muted palette gives the printed design a considered, lightly vintage character.

About this fabric

The printed pattern brings together scalloped blue-grey blooms, small dotted sprigs and curling paisley shapes, with fine ochre lines adding warmth and definition. Made from 100% linen at approximately 137cm wide, Rubia Cove is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery in general domestic settings. The linen ground gives the image a natural, gently textured appearance, while the restrained blue and ochre contrast keeps the repeat balanced rather than vivid. Allow 3% shrinkage; care is listed as delicate wash at 30°C or dry clean, and do not tumble dry.

How to use it

Use Rubia Cove for relaxed curtains or a tailored occasional chair where its pale blue-grey ground can soften a room. Pick up the ochre tracery with a warm neutral cushion, aged brass or honey-toned timber.

Pair the cool blue-grey and ochre print with chalky neutrals, natural wood and warm brass accents.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Rubia Cove without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
